Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Arlen Blueberry is a new semi-evergreen shrub with an upright mounded habit and high yield of med to large light blue berries that ripen in late summer.  These berries are highly sweet with light acidity. The deep green elliptical foliage turns crimson in fall.  Grows best with full sun and rich, moist acidic well-drained soils.  Arlen can self-pollinate, though another pollinator would increase yields, and has improved resistance to stem blight and anthracnose fruit rot. Needs around 600 chill hours.
